Faruk Sezgin’s Lifetime Dream The Islam Science And Technology Museum Written by: Susem DOĞANAY Translated by: Iklimen Neşe CENGIZ NEREZOĞLU As being one of the private gardens of the Ottoman empire, the Gulhane Park, always filled with bird cheeping, has also been a home to a museum which exhibits the contributions to the history of science by muslim scientists: “The Islam Science and Tecnology Museum”. The museum, which has been founded with the pioneering efforts of Prof. Fuat Sezgin, who dedicated a lifetime to the history of islamic sciences, is a place where miscellaneous scientific artifacts and technological tools and mechanical structures invented by the islamic scientists during the period between 9th and 16th centuries, are exhibited. 42
Tracing the tramway route from Sultanahmet to Sirkeci, we’re coming to the entrance of the Gulhane Park. As soon as we step in through the gate, it seems as if we’re transformed into another dimension. The chaos of the city and the traffic noise is left behind and fresh air diffuses into our lungs, when we really feel to breath oxygen. The remaining leaves on trees from late Autumn have fallen on the ground and made yellow piles like gold which creates an alluring image to the eyes. Green wings are dancing over the branches of the trees and singing their songs in a language that we don’t know, which is an image we’re not accustomed to see within the city. After coming closer, we discern that those are parrots. As their red beaks make a fantastic contrats with their green colour. We think that they strayed to find themselves in this beautiful woods. These red-beak parrots had been very popular during Roman times and an epitome of status. The craze to own a parrot had been a trend not only in Europe, but also within the Ottoman society as well. The court gentry and the notables all had their parrots at the time. We now learn that at that time those birds were called the “Palace Birds” which lived in populations in the Yıldız Park and Gulhane Park. According to a story, these parrots flapping to and fro the old plane trees of the Gulhane Park, were the descendants of their ancestors which were emancipated after the dissolution of the Ottoman dynasty and the exile of the royal family.
